How is kidney calculi treated?

Kidney calculi's renal colic is very distressing. I don't know which treatment is the best. For kidney calculi, first of all, we should know the location and size of his own stones, and then we can take targeted treatment measures according to his condition.

For kidney calculi, anyone who is smaller than 5mm and has a kidney upper calyx or kidney middle calyx can drink more water, run and jump more every day, or take some Chinese herbal medicines that can exclude kidney calculi. It is suggested to choose jade museum and tea to dredge urethra and discharge stones.

Kidney calculi, whose diameter is more than 5mm but less than 10mm, is located in the upper calyx or the middle calyx of the kidney. Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy can be used, that is, a single stone in the body is crushed by high-energy shock waves generated by professional instruments, and the crushed nodules in urine are excreted through the urethra. Non-invasive fiberoptic lithotripsy is a new standard for the treatment of kidney calculi. This method can not only treat kidney calculi at one time, but also be non-invasive, painless and bleeding-free.

For larger stones, the kidney calculi in the body can be crushed by Holmium laser technology first, and then the stones can be taken out one by one by fiber soft mirror.

Minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy requires small abdominal incision and operation. This method is harmful to the human kidney and is generally not recommended.
